-*Cat Noir/Adrien's POV*-

After today's encounter with Y/n, I figured that the only way I could possibly get anything out of her was to talk to her tonight, but as Cat Noir... It was the only other idea I could come up with.
I checked the clock one last time before transforming into Cat and snuck out my window. Somehow, even though I had only been to Y/n's house at least two or three times, I had memorized her address and made my way to her balcony.
Crouching on the railing, I tried to look through the glass door.
The lights seemed to be off, but I heard faint music coming from inside. Out of curiosity, I climbed onto the landing, gently knocking on the stained glass door.
All of a sudden there was a small sob, and then the silky tone of Y/n's voice.
"Go away!"
I took that as a chance to open the door and slowly crept inside the dark room. Everything was pitch black except for a faint blue moon nightlight by Y/n's vanity. There was a little music box with a white horse with black hair, up on its hind legs, it's hair tossed everywhere dancing around as a lullaby played.
   I couldn't make out the tune, it wasn't familiar.
As I neared the vanity, I heard a loud cry coming from a giant blob on her bed. The cry sounded abnormal, and it worried me a bit. Why was she all alone with the lights off? And why was she crying? Could I do anything to help her? The questions kept popping off in my brain as I neared her bed.
          "Y/n?" I asked the blob. She moved a little under the covers until tossing them back, revealing only her tear soaked face. The shadows cast what looked like ink marks on her face and the milky glow from her nightlight revealed her features... And how sad and depressed they looked.
             I watched as she forced her face into a smile, and got out of bed, revealing a pair of long, tight, black sparkly PJ pants and a rainbow tank top. Her hair was swooped to the side, the tips were wet from tears most likely. She padded away from me and over to the light switch and flipped it on, illuminating the rest of her room.
             Y/n quickly wiped her teary eyes, and filed (fake smiled) her way over to me. "Hey, Cat? When I say go away, I mean leave me alone if you don't get that." She shook her head and I couldn't help but brush a lone strand of her hair and tuck it behind her ear.
            Realizing it wasn't a rhetorical question, I nodded my head and replied, "Yeah, I know. But I wanted to see you."
           I was surprised when she rolled her eyes and walked away to a picture frame on her wall. Her reflection was visible in the glass.
          "Funny you want to see me. Because I don't want to see you-"
          "Y/n, are you okay? Please, just answer the stupid question truthfully." I couldn't help but blurt out that tiny bit of truth. I knew that something was up with her, I'm not that stupid that I can't tell when something is wrong.
            Y/n twirled around and pulled off a smile that was so real looking that I almost bought it, if it hadn't been for the tears pooling in her eyes. "I'm great. I'm perfect. Just fine, is that what you wanted to hear, Adrien?"
            She walked towards me and stopped a couple feet away from me. I opened my mouth to say something, but she beat me to it.
             "Adrien, you want to know the truth? No. I'm not okay. I'm losing all my friendships and my relationships, I'm terrified that I may be scared of myself because of what lives inside me, I miss my dad, and I'm petrified because I'm hearing voices inside my head. But does anyone care? No. And why should anyone care? I'm nothing. I'm just a stupid girl who somehow has a special ability to become someone other than herself which is a gift from heaven for me because I don't have to be myself. I don't understand why you care about me. Because you shouldn't. You shouldn't be in love with me! You're not supposed to fall in love with the sad girl! And since everyone pretends like they care about you, even though you know they don't, then there's no other point to mention it and you just have to act like everything's fine even though it's-"
            That was all it took for me to shoot forward and kiss her straight on the lips.

-*Your POV*-

You felt so darn stupid.
You let him kiss you and you kissed him back. What were you thinking? You had broken things off... But did you really want to in the first place?
Then again, you only did it to protect him from you.
You were dangerous. Nightmare almost killed him, and she even admitted that if she wanted to she could take out everything from here to Hawaii. If that didn't throw a red flag around, you didn't know what else would.
Adrien pressed his lips against yours and you kissed back fiercely. Might as well enjoy the last rendezvous before you break things up... For now. You're making a promise to yourself that once you get rid or find out what is inside you that is dangerous and demolish it, then you're safe for him. There is no way in heck that you're going to let yourself hurt him.
               Adrien reached around and locked one hand around your waist, and pulled you closer to him while the other one grazed your cheek. You shivered at the chill of his leather against your skin. Bringing your hand up, you ran your fingers through his hair and wrapped your other one around his neck. You pulled back slowly for air, and then dove back in for another kiss.
              (I'm sorry guys, I'm terrible at romance)
   You two stayed that way for around thirty minutes, enjoying every minute of it. Until...
          Get away from him, you little slut, freak!
The sudden force of the voices words made you unclasp your hold on Adrien and you staggered backwards, hitting the vanity with your waist. You gripped your head and let out a low moan as Adrien rushed to you.
           "Y/n, what's wrong, did I hurt you?" He seemed to be scared that he did something. You wished that you could tell him what was really going on, but you couldn't. If you did, things would only get worse.
           Did you really think you could get rid of me? That I'd just fade away? Well, you're dead wrong, sweetheart. I'm here to stay. For as long as I want...
